Ladies' Morning Music Club Presents the Goldmund Quartett

GOLMUND QUARTETT, strings

Florian Schötz and Pinchas Adt - violins

Christopher Vandory - viola,   Raphael Paratore - cello

The Goldmund Quartett is widely regarded as one of the most exciting string quartets of the younger generation, renowned for its beautiful sound, fine intonation, and homogeneity of musical approach. The Goldmund Quartett perfected its artistry in studies at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Munich, and with members of the Alban Berg, Hagen, Borodin, Belcea, Ysaÿe, and Cherubini Quartets. Among the high-profile competitions at which the Goldmund has won prizes are the 2018 International Wigmore Hall String Competition, the 2018 Melbourne International Chamber Music Competition, and the ARD Munich Competition. In recent years the quartet has given debut recitals at the Philharmonie in Paris, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, and the Konzerthaus in Vienna. The Quartett’s discography includes standard repertory by Haydn, Schubert and Shostakovich, but also off-the-beaten-track material under the rubrics of Prisma and Travel Diaries. The musicians perform on the so-called “Paganini Quartet,” four instruments once owned by the legendary Niccolò Paganini. The Goldmund is the first German quartet to have the honour of using these priceless instruments, on loan from Japan’s Nippon Music Foundation. This is their 2nd LMMC concert. 

Subscriptions for the 10-concert series are $350, and $100 for students 26 years and under and single tickets are available at $60 and $25 for students.
